Abstract

You will have seen from Chapter 12 that with parking structures, structural design and durability design go hand-in-hand. One depends on and directly affects the other. For organizational purposes, this chapter will address construction material use that will improve the useful life of your structure. At intervals tables have been inserted to summarize the discussion of a material or to close a major section.
